Disclosed is a mobile terminal, which includes a microphone path switching unit for switching a microphone signal path used to input audio information from a microphone; an interrupt generator for storing audio information and for generating an interrupt signal if the audio information from the microphone path switching unit and the stored audio information substantially correspond with each other; and a controller for controlling the microphone path switching unit to route the audio information from the microphone to the interrupt generator if the mobile terminal enters a power saving mode and for releasing the power saving mode if the interrupt signal is generated while in the power saving mode. Accordingly, since a mobile terminal releases a power saving mode and enters a speech recognition mode, if a specific speech or a sound is input while in the power saving mode, a user can telephone or send a short message despite the terminal being in the power saving mode. |
